Services / General Dentistry
General dentistry addresses both preventive and restorative care for your family’s smile needs. It encompasses a wide range of services including:
Oral Hygiene Instruction:
Proper oral hygiene is the most effective means of preventing dental problems such as cavities and gum disease.
Preventative Care Visits:
Preventative care visit are essential to maintaining a healthy smile. Healthy patients should have their teeth cleaned and examined every six months in order to encourage healthy smiles and address oral health problems while they are smaller and simpler to correct.
Dental Fillings: A dental filling is used to restore the portion of a tooth that has been damaged by decay. Fillings return both form and function to the afflicted tooth.
Root Canal: A root canal removes diseased nerve tissues inside of a tooth before the tooth is no longer functional.
Sedation Dentistry:
Your pain and anxiety are kept under control as you remain in a safe and light level of sedation throughout your dental procedure.
Children’s Dentistry: Establishing good oral hygiene habits at a young age is important for empowering your child with a healthy smile as they grow up.
TMJ Treatment:
Temporomandibular joint disorder can cause headaches, muscle pain and complications opening and closing your jaw. Thankfully we have non-surgical therapies that can help.
Wisdom Teeth Removal:
Wisdom teeth sometimes cause pain, infection, or crowding of your other teeth. A simple exam is all that you need to find out whether or not your wisdom teeth need to be removed.
We recommend a dental check-up every six months. Regular check-ups help catch any potential dental problems early, so they can be treated before becoming more serious and costly. Remember a stich in time saves nine.
Some common preventative treatments include fluoride treatments, sealants for your teeth, and regular cleans (scaling). These services help protect your teeth from cavities, decay, and other oral health issues.
Improving your oral hygiene between check-ups involves consistent daily practices. Brush your teeth at least twice a day for two minutes each time using fluoride toothpaste. Floss daily to remove plaque and food particles from between your teeth and under your gum line. Eat a balanced diet, limit sugary snacks and drinks, and drink plenty of water. These habits, combined with regular dental visits, are key to maintaining a healthy smile.
